My way to not take things too seriously is to remind myself that I have zero influence on the outcome of the game. I'm not the pro athlete working his butt off, nor do I have any sway on roster decisions.
I started watching hockey games because I was in awe of what the players could do(mostly Kipper), and how quick and tenacious the game was compared to soccer. That's what I remind myself of when I get frustrated and/or only concentrate on the lack of winning.
